First up is Suruga Kanbaru from Bakemonogatari or Monster Story in English. Some might translate this as Ghost Story, just so you can do the ghoSTory thing with it like the Japanese title, which is an amalgamation of the Japanese BAKEMONO (monster) and MONOGATARI (story/tale,) hence the “bakeMONOgatari.”

The original image was a screenshot from the anime. I just loved her expression in this scene where she was complimenting herself.

Since I still have trouble drawing anime eyes, this shot was perfect. (Oh, those are supposed to be bandages on her left arm.)
